Be a better friend to ur introvert friends 😌👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏽💖🙇🏽‍♀️

As somone who is an extrovert I would say almost half of my friends are introverts & I LOVE THEM TO BITS. However, if you're an extrovert here are things to do that may seem small but ur introvert friends might really appreciate 😜💖

01 Check with them before u invite more people to the outing 👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏽🌺 — If you're planning an outing with just the two of you, but you decided to invite your other friends (they might know of — but not very well) to the outing. Always be sure to check with them beforehand with a simple text message like:

"Hey what do you think of inviting ___, totally fine if we don't we can always do another day with her/him hehe" Always emphasise after that it really is fine, you're just checking 💐💖

I find that this really helps them to make a choice but don't feel bad about it. Sometimes they might be alright with inviting but sometimes they may feel uncomfortable especially if they're planning to update you about their life 😌

02 Don't interrupt when they're speaking 😠☝🏻 — Obviously this applies to EVERYONE you speak to whether introvert or extrovert. It just that introverts do react differently considering it takes awhile for them to open up, the last thing you want to make them feel is being shut off and unimportant.

If you do accidentally interrupt them just apologise and say please continue!!! You always wanna make sure you're listening too don't be rushing them through their conversation.

Like i feel it's so different to when you interrupt an extrovert they usually just brush it off cause they do it too HAHAH. However, i realised that my introvert friends are usually really good at listening 😩🩷

03 Check in on them at social events 🙇🏽‍♀️🫶🏻 — Especially if they have already expressed how they feel about being at this social outing before hand, like if you know they feel awkward with a certain person in the group.

Just check in on them when you realise that they've started to zone out and disengaged in conversations. Just ask quietly "How you feeling" or ask them to follow you to get drinks (Away from the social group) and see how they feel 💐🌺

Anyways, those are just my tips as someone who is friends with introverts and they have expressed how appreciative they are when I do these! 👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏽
